Me neither.  It's the *level* one reaches and the challenge of individual
levels that takes over one's interest, especially when one realises that
the game is often about manipulating enemies and getting them to
help collect the gold.

I am not anxious to discard high-score data, however, because in this
game it takes *hours* of play to create just one really good high score.
So the loss could be quite annoying for some people out there.
